UNSPSC 50586836: Non GMO lily bulb

The variety of Non GMO vegetable known as Non GMO lily bulb. This means that they are produced without the use of methods that genetically modify organisms by means that are not possible under natural conditions. Such methods include cell fusion, microencapsulation and macro-encapsulation, and recombinant DNA technology (including gene deletion, gene doubling, introducing a foreign gene, and changing the positions of genes when achieved by recombinant DNA technology).

Traditional methods of breeding, conjugation, fermentation, hybridization, in vitro fertilization, or tissue culture are considered to be non-GMO.

UNSPSC 50586836 Non GMO lily bulb (Commodity) does not align with state and local procurement activity in the recent opportunities dataset. The code nominally describes ornamental bulbs, but the sixteen recent solicitations spanning February through June 2026 consistently target fresh produce supply for school nutrition programs, state agency food service operations, and child nutrition initiatives—apples, carrots, lettuce, strawberries, eggs, and similar commodity produce items for institutional food service, not ornamental plantings. The issuing bodies are predominantly school districts (Northside Independent School District in San Antonio, Early County Board of Education in Georgia, Bulloch County School District in Georgia, Muscogee County School District in Georgia, Savannah-Chatham County Public Schools, Glynn County Board of Education in Georgia, McAllen Independent School District in Texas, Austin Independent School District in Texas, Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri, Douglas County School System in Georgia, Liberty County Board of Education in Georgia, and Hillsborough County Public Schools in Florida) and state procurement offices (Georgia), with a geographic concentration in Georgia and Texas.

The recent solicitations—including RFPs and IFBs from Northside ISD (RFP 2026-048 due May 7, 2026), Early County Schools (PE55045NONST2027000000006 due June 8, 2026), Bulloch County (PE55612NONST2027000000031 due May 4, 2026), Muscogee County (PE55220NONST2026000000029 due April 27, 2026), Savannah-Chatham County (BID2634 due April 23, 2026), McAllen ISD (RFP 2026-1029 due March 6, 2026), Austin ISD (26RFP034 due March 11, 2026), and the Georgia State Department (PE68504NONST2026000000006 due May 27, 2026)—all specify fresh produce, eggs, dairy, grains, and prepared foods for institutional nutrition programs. The code shows no material activity aligned with ornamental lily bulb procurement in state and local government markets.
